un.ex.pect.ed.ly
<<副词>>
(more ~; most ~)
出人意料地,意想不到地,突然; 意外地
I finished work ~ early.
我的工作意外地提早做完

Answer 2

其实这个题目不是语法问题，只是对几个副词意义的推敲；
句意：傍晚，车子突然抛锚了，大雨更加剧了这个女司机的无助之感。
Unexpectedly 意为“没有预料到地”；
all of a sudden“突然”；
unfortunately“不幸运地”；
immediately“迅速地”。
只有all of a sudden“突然"比较合理，其他的都比较牵强。

车子迅速地坏了，这么翻译，你不觉得很不通顺吗？

追问

您的回答比较牵强，
我当时还觉得A比较合理。

追答

这不是“主语是人不能修饰”的问题哦
unexpectedly 主语无所谓人或物，这个你可以参照牛津词典2200页。
immediately更不会是这个问题才不能选，这个题目就是考查词义的。
其实A是未预料到的，意外的，我们讨论下吧，车子抛锚肯定是不能预料到的啊，这个用上去感觉怪怪的，D选项是“立刻、马上”，意思更不行哦

追问

哇塞，你说得对！还真的是在2200页，我刚查过了。
那到底存不存在unexpectingly呢？它与unexpectedly的区别又在哪？

追答

unexpectingly是不存在的 所以就没有什么区别之谈啦
但是一般的作为形容词时，以ing结尾的形容词，其主语多是事物；以ed结尾的形容词，其主语多是人，但是注意了，我说的是形容词啊，范围也没有绝对！举个例子：
The story is interesting!这个故事很有趣（或者翻译为：这个故事很令人感兴趣）。
I am interested in the story.我对这个故事很感兴趣。

Answer 3

A unexpectedly 出乎意料地， 晚上车子 出乎意料的坏了，
汽车坏 随时会发生， 没有人会预料到， 所以用expectedly显得多余。

D immediately 立刻，马上， 英语解释是 without delay, 这里用immediately不合理。

Answer 4

all of a sudden = suddenly D 项 句意不通 A项 句意不通 且不伦不类的

Answer 5

B

Answer 6

A选项是用来形容人的，只能说人unexpectedly ，而不能说车unexpectedly 。不知道你明白了没有？

追问

难道还有unexpectingly???

追答

D选项和A选项是一种情况，也是用来形容人的。unexpectingly这个词是存在的，如果A选项改成这个词也是对的！
